The regular indefinite linear-quadratic problem with linear endpoint constraints

Linear Quadratic Gaussian Problem with Constraints

In this paper, an aggregate production-planning problem is formulated as a stochastic linear quadratic problem with chance constraints on state and control variables. The stochastic model proposed extends the classical aggregate model developed by Holt, Modigliani, Muth and Simon (HMMS). As an example of application, an equivalent deterministic problem is developed from the stochastic model. Th...

Stochastic linear quadratic control problem of switching systems with constraints

Stochastic Linear Quadratic Regulators with Indefinite Control Weight Costs. II

This paper considers optimal (minimizing) control of stochastic linear quadratic regulators (LQRs). The assumption that the control weight costs must be positive definite, inherited from the deterministic case, has been taken for granted in the literature. It is, however, shown in this paper that some stochastic LQR problems with indefinite (in particular, negative) control weight costs may sti...

Linear quadratic problems with indefinite cost for discrete time systems

This paper deals with the discrete-time infinite-horizon linear quadratic problem with indefinite cost criterion. Given a discrete-time linear system, an indefinite costfunctional and a linear subspace of the state space, we consider the problem of minimizing the costfunctional over all inputs that force the state trajectory to converge to the given subspace. We give a geometric characterizatio...

Numerical method for solving optimal control problem of the linear differential systems with inequality constraints

In this paper, an efficient method for solving optimal control problems of the linear differential systems with inequality constraint is proposed. By using new adjustment of hat basis functions and their operational matrices of integration, optimal control problem is reduced to an optimization problem. Also, the error analysis of the proposed method is nvestigated and it is proved that the orde...
